This we all share,

…the cravings of Salt.

Most omnivores savor salty meat, when is the last time you enjoyed a hamburger?

Salt is required for life.

The salty components:

Sodium and chloride ions regulate fluid balance in the body. It’s a mechanism of equilibrium.

You have to keep balance.

Too much Salt = National Health Risk

Warning: High salt diet may cause serious disease, use at own risk.

It’s a salty situation because we are programmed to enjoy salt — we require it. The problem is that we enjoy salt a little bit… too much. Just as sugar brings its own sweet temptation, salt is equally desirable.

What to do about it?

How much salt in 2,300 milligrams?
